En vadrouille-Part 1

Dear readers, I hope you're OK as it has been a few weeks now but I really needed to take some time for me (still do actually but it will do for now and hope to do it again soon enough as these past weeks or maybe months haven't been easy) my mood is stable I could say for now...it depends...
In the meantime, I'll keep you posted as I go along and thank you again for being here and listening. Without knowing it, or at least before, writing on this blog, lately, has been helpful on how I felt and still feel most of the time...like a refuge, a friends that won't judge you, will be there whenever you need..., whether you want to smile, share something meaningful or important, laugh or cry, it's here! :)

Anyway, as mentioned above, I took some time for me and went away, it did me good and strangely enough (or not^^) I didn't want to go home (smile), it was really nice and felt I could breathe again, enjoy the sunny weather of the South of France, see people I care about and love, to clear my head to sum up! And nothing definite yet, but I hope to do it again soon! :) While waiting to do that, here are a few pictures on my little trip! I won't put too much (as i've taken many pictures) but still here are a few then! :) Enjoy and relax! Maybe it'll also give you envy to do the same, whether it's only for a day, a week-end or more than a day...:)

Lorgues (Var, 83), small and lovely town that I was glad to discover! :)

Cotignac (Var, 83) lovely, isn't it? :) 

TourTour (Var, 83)  (yes, lol, it's the name!), really lovely medieval town! :) 

A lovely view in the same town, ToutTour :) nice, isn't it? could look at it for hours! :) 

St Raphaël (83) , the sea and the sun, it makes you dream of swimming and reading a book on the beach! :)

Lovely pictures, isn't it? That was the first part of my trip! And the next part, was to go to Lyon (69), also a really nice city, that I didn't very well and was happy to discover! :) I got to visit 'La Basilique de la Fourvière' (lovely church, especially inside, with many decorations!, 'le quartier du Vieux Lyon' as well, really lovely to be 'lost' in these lovely (hum...I seem to like that word^^), streets and nice shops! you could stay for hours! :) and to finish this visit, by eating a nice ice cream! :) I also got the chance to visit Pérouges (a medieval town), not very large, quite small but many charms! And it was sunny, even better! :) Next time, I'll come back and visit 'La Croix-Rousse, which I've heard, is quite nice too! :) Pictures of that second part will be up soon (either tomorrow or in just a few days)! :)
Take care and see you soon for another article! xxx :)

Going away...

Dear readers, how are you? Hope going back to work or working is not too hard at the moment and that everything is well! :) at least, a little better than me, I'm sorry to say that lately my mood hasn't been great...(hope I'm not bothering you with all that as I must have told several times during these past few months...but thanks anyway for listening...:) and is still not great, I'm afraid...:( grr...I don't like it!
And today, just a little article, attached to a lovely picture I wanted to share with you, it's actually a postcard I received not long ago and I quite like it! :) Maybe it will help, going away for a little while, take a deep breathe and concentrating myself better on what I want or would like to do. (smile discreet)

Nice, isn't it? Makes me think  of lavendet and their really nice perfume! :) 'unless it is? (rire)

Take care and see you soon for another article (I hope to be more joyful) ! xxx

Summer ends and September begins....

Dear readers, how are you? Hope you're all OK and that everything is alright with you since my last article. Or at least, well I won't bother you too much with that, if you have read my previous article you are aware of how I felt/feel during these past few weeks, or more like months..., let's say my mood is more or less the same and am quite starting to apprehend this next few weeks...
As you know, it's now September , letting place to the Autumm soon enough, where the tree will start to feel slightly naked without their leaves, the flowers will also feel like that, and the nature will go into hibernation during the winter months, while we as well will start to wear warm clothes, with many scarves, gloves, et bonnets...hoping not to catch a cold and feeling sick because of the weather, eat soup, drink a lot of hot beverages (hum I think Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory would be really happy to hear that! lol!) such as coffee, hot chocolates, or cup of Tea....with good books, which you can't stop reading, turning every pages with more impatience, wanting to know what going to happened next,  in front of the fire, hum nothing better I'd say, don't you think? Well, OK it will be cold outside and I'm not fond of the winter either, prefering Spring and Summer like any other person, but that at least one of the advantages of Winter, despite the long night, because it will fell early than in the Summer. And there is Christmas...lol^^ anyway, I guess every seasons can have its advantages, despite cold, rain, or snow...or any weather we can have...:)
Thanks again for following me and listening, I appreciate it and hope I don't bother you too much (lol) , will keep you posted during the next few weeks, if I have time. Take care, see you soon for another article! :) xxx

Feeling safe

Dear readers, hope you are all OK. Today just a short article won't be too long as I know I have been telling you a lot about how I feel lately and what has been going on. Feel more or less the same and thanks for those who have been there despite annoying you with my problems lol anyway in the middle of all that there are a few things that keeps me going and helps me whenever I need, that are here for me, that also helps me escape from time to time and make me feel safe in some ways, I can't really explain it but I love this feeling no matter what people would or could think, it has always been there for me... it is here whenever I am reading, writing or watching movies that I like... plunging myself in another (slightly) imaginary world... making my imagination going...giving me ideas as well or simply relaxing me. I can't help but love that feeling. There is also another thing that really helps me ( but shush, keep your lips sealed, this is a state secret) hum I wonder if I should tell you
 now...lol hum hum sorry to keep you waiting... lol well what do you think? Oh well I am trusting not to tell or revealing that secret to anyone else!!! Ready? Lol well the thing or actually I should say who... this person was/is a really great author no matter what people could say
I still love her and is never too far  and one of the time she has been here was a few months ago when I was writing my dissertation which was about her and the romance in her novels (by now you might have guess whom I am talking about? ) and well I was stressing as the deadline was approaching... ( just like I am doing today but for as you know different reasons) and I just started reading one of her famous book: which one do you think ?  oh I really think that by now you have probably guess.
 No? Lol anyway let's get to the point the book that I started to read that day was of course the one and only... Pride and Prejudice! And whitout really explaining it I really felt great, felt and still feel safe, better. I am simply in another world. Nice don't you think?  she is still here whenever I need and you have guess that it is Jane Austen!  And to think I wanted to write only a short article... lol never mind always a pleasure to share things with you. Thank you again for listening to me and for being here. Take care and see you soon for another article. XXX

in need of relaxation

Dear readers, hope you are OK and are having a good summer whatever you are doing. Well, for me as you already know by now, my mood lately has been quite low, playing Russian mountain... and I don't like it much... so many things in my head... am stressed and a pack of nerves.I did not know it could be possible, going so fast and the next thing you know, you're growing up already.it is a good thing I know as we are all doing that one day but it is also overwhelming.
Everyone is looking at you expecting you know or have at least an idea of what you would like to do, or just wondering because they care about you but sometimes you still feel a bit lost and trying not to panic. It feels like a big step towards independence, it is also natural I guess, who wouldn't want that? It is nice and once you have figured out what you want/ would like to do, you must feel quite free and like a weight has been lifted. hum, that sounds good... let's try and stay positive... I hope that once again it will be OK. Just need to be reassured in a way. Anyway sorry to bother you with all that . Helps to write about it, thank you as always for listening. Hope everything makes sense as it is getting late and my eyes are closing themselves... and sorry in advance for any misspelling
 Take care and see you for another article XXX

Film quotation-1

Dear readers, as usual, hope you're all OK since my last article! As for me, not much change, depends of the day actually, some days it's OK (more or less) and others, less but what can you do? lately, my mood (as you already know by now) has been playing russian mountains, grr...I don't like it very much either and hope to get throught it soon...am still a pack of nerves and quite stressed! But I won't worry or bore you with all that too much (see previous article), I just wanted to share with a film quotation (I know that I've probably seen that movie, I don't know how many time-but it's like books I'd say, when you're really like them, no matter how many times you're reading or watching them, well, (smile), it's doesn't matter, you don't have the impression to have seen it/them so much, as if you had only discovered it/them yesterday! what I found great is that it doesn't get old, not one bit! :) and you'll probably recognized this film by just reading this famous sentences (hope it's faithful, it's quite late, sorry in advance). moreover, I would have hoped to put a picture to illustrate it, expect I'm afraid I still can't, technologies and me, equals two sometimes! lol anyway, in waiting, here is the quotation (I still love it and simply want to melt, don't you? despite watching this movie a hundred times at least lol): 'I'm just a girl standing in front of a boy, asking asking him to love her'!!!! (Anna Scott played by Julia ROberts) Isn't that sweet? :) and now you must have guess that it comes from 'Notting Hill'! if you are as addicted as me to romantic comedies and happy ending! :) please do enjoy them without moderation and no restriction! :) see you soon for another article, take care, xxx
